Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Club Velico Castiglionese

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces E, so wind from the W blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing E. Wind from the E blows onshore, wind from the W blows out to sea, and wind from the S or N runs along the shore. 2 sailing schools or clubs and 5 boat hire places within 10 km. The town to stay in is Castiglione del Lago.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
